No HDMI cable in the box
Uses disc tray
Still mangles game discs
External power brick
No Bluray
Clunky power box
No HDMI support
Hard drive not standard
First generation games feature great graphics
But probably only a little better than what some high-end PCs can produce
No digital video output. No 1080p. Awkward form-factor.
Abstract: Forget about DLP vs. LCoS or Blu-ray vs. HD DVD. The biggest battle heating up in the home-entertainment world right now is over whos going to rule the next generation of gaming. And Microsoft just launched the first strike — 100 megatons worth of s...
Abstract: Unless you've been living in a Buddhist Temple in the mountains of Tibet for the past few months you will be well aware that the Xbox 360 launches in the UK today. Although there has been a massive amount of coverage and speculation in the technology pres...
Abstract: The 360 launch, of course, has been crazy. From people waiting in line, to the Ebay scalpers, to questions about backwards compatibility, I dont think there has been another console with as much speculation, hand wringing, and forum fodder. This is hi...
Abstract: If youre still wondering if you should rush out and get your hands on the Xbox 360, Microsofts next-generation game player and media center combo, its probably too late. When they went on sale across the country, huge numbers of rabid game freaks li...

Abstract: Microsoft’s next-generation Xbox 360 is due to release today, with responses so far ranging from enthusiastic to completely indifferent. The Xbox 360 touts some of the most impressive hardware we’ve even seen in a gaming machine, even putting...
Gorgeous graphics and immersive audio provide a splendidly realistic gaming experience. Capable of using wireless controllers right out of the box. Excellent media management and playback. Great collection of launch titles.
Another bulky console from Microsoft. Game prices increase to $59.99.
Xbox 360 sets a new standard in console gaming with high-definition video and surround-sound audio. The Design of the main console is impressive, and setup is effortless, although poorly documented. The Xbox 360 is truly cutting-edge technology on the ...
Abstract: <b>Spec:</b> 512 MB, 1920 x 1080, IBM PowerPC 3.2 GHz<br /> <b>Good:</b> All games for the Xbox 360 are in high-definition, as is the excellent user-friendly Dashboard interface. Theres built-in support for wireless controllers and excellent online gaming and communications via Xbox Live. The console is not only backward compatible with many (but not all) original Xbox titles, it also doubles as superior digital media hub and Windows Media extender.<br /> <b>Bad:</b> Most of the Xbox 360s games so far havent been a big improvement over the previous generation, and the console has some slight design flaws: a noisy exhaust fan, gigantic oversize power supply, no built-in wireless networking, only three USB ports, and no DVI or HDMI output. The DVD player is substandard, and theres no built-in support for next-gen HD movie discs.<br /> <b>Bottomline:</b> The Xbox 360 delivers the power and performance of a high-end gaming PC, including impressive digital media and networking features--but it will take several months to amass a roster of must-have next-gen games. The upcoming Sony PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii threaten to provide better graphics and a wider range of downloadable content, respectively.<br />
